Houck's Panacea. Baltimore, MD. 1829. Silver. 32.5mm. Counterstamped 1829 Bust Half Dollar. Houck's Panacea Baltimore, Md Counterstamped, listed as HT-141. Dr. Jacob Houck was born in Frederick, Maryland, and moved to Baltimore in 1828. In 1834 he began selling Houck's Panacea; it is believed that the counterstamp emanated from the 1836-1837 Hard Times period. He was a prolific counterstamper, using whatever coin was available to promote his product.

Simply just great! I confused on lost vs. concealed. You loose a quarter or half. Who looses a 128 of them? Were all these in one area or hole? My hats off to you for finding them! Can't wait to read about how you found them.

Re: My best silver day...E.V.E.R...

AC, the sheer magnitude, variety, and quality of these finds qualify as a BANNER recovery. The TNet Moderators want bling and stuff written on the finds-they got it. Incredible recoveries and you know I'm not a coin guy. Congrats, Quindy.

forget the banner.
If garrett doesn't give you a call to advertise the AT Pro then I think they need a new marketing team.
Epic find. What are you planning on doing with them? I'm sorry if someone already asked this.
